Discover Europe’s highest railway station
This full-day guided tour takes you from green forests to the mighty north face of the Eiger and the glaciers of the high mountains. Stroll through the Ice Palace and visit the Sphinx viewing platform, from where you can see the Aletsch glacier, the longest glacier in Europe. The tour of the "Alpine Sensation" tells the story of the impressive railway tunnel.
From Interlaken, a bus takes visitors on to Grindelwald; the journey through a majestic natural landscape is an experience in itself. After Grindelwald, a rack-and-pinion railway transports you to the Kleine Scheidegg. The views at the base of the north face of the Eiger are truly inspiring. The last section to the highest station in Europe passes through the mountain range. Did you know the train makes a stop on this route? At "Eismeer" station, you can admire perpetual ice. Once at the top, the "Alpine Sensation" awaits: the illuminating tour takes you back to the early days of this incredible structure. Other highlights of Jungfraujoch – Top of Europe include the Sphinx viewing platform and the Lindt Chocolate Shop at 3454 m above sea level. With an experienced guide at your side, you benefit from expert support and information. The return train trip runs via Wengen to Lauterbrunnen, where the bus takes you back to Interlaken.
